Blizzard has unveiled all the details for Diablo 4 Season 7, dubbed Season of Witchcraft, set to launch on January 21. Since its debut in 2023, Blizzard has consistently enriched Diablo 4 with regular updates, seasonal content, and a major expansion, with more expansions planned for the beloved action-RPG.
Seasonal content in Diablo 4 keeps the community engaged and excited between major expansions. While some seasons may vary in appeal, Season of Witchcraft promises to be one of the most significant updates since the game's launch. This is due in part to Season 6 concluding "Chapter 1" and Season 7 ushering in "Chapter 2" of the game's storyline.
Diablo 4 Season of Witchcraft begins on Tuesday, January 21 at 10am PST. Players will join forces with the Witches of Hawezar to retrieve heads stolen from the Tree of Whispers. By studying witchcraft powers offered by the Witches of Hawezar, players can enhance their abilities. Additionally, they can equip Occult Gems to unlock new powers, some reminiscent of Diablo 3, which will be essential in battles against the formidable Headrotten Bosses. Defeating these bosses rewards players with valuable items, including Occult Gems.
Season 7 also brings several quality-of-life enhancements, including a major upgrade to the Diablo 4 armory, allowing players to save and switch between different loadouts effortlessly. Players can anticipate new seasonal rewards through unique and legendary items, and unlock the Raven pet by participating in the Season Journey and completing the new Battle Pass.
Owners of the Vessel of Hatred expansion will have access to exclusive content during Season 7, including three new Runes. Blizzard has consistently emphasized that expansion owners would receive special seasonal content, and this trend is likely to continue with even more substantial offerings in the future. For a complete Diablo 4 Season 7 experience, owning the Vessel of Hatred expansion is essential.
Diablo 4 enthusiasts can look forward to more seasonal content throughout 2025, with another expansion slated for release in the fall. While details about the upcoming expansion remain a mystery, players will have plenty to keep them occupied in the meantime.
